"I call this my painting shirt but in reality I don't paint" - a whole mood
I still live with my parents so I love living vicariously through watching other people decorate their apartments lol
I feel this so much.
It’s utterly time-consuming and I suppose pretty boring, but there’s definitely something enjoyable and cathartic about unloading and re-loading a bookshelf. Dunno what. Maybe the sound of a sliding book? The smell?
I’m so early even my phone was confused
The roommates pretty cool for letting her take the whole living room for her books again.
I lived with a housemate that I met while I was in uni and we lived together throughout our studies. We decided that it was best to just combine our bookcases in what we affectionately dubbed the 'book room', which was this room in an old Victorian that had these gorgeous floor to ceiling windows that showed the entire downtown and waterfront. However, my friend/housemate was an English major who fell in love with English medieval/early renaissance literature and her shelves reflected that while my shelves just had whatever I was interested in at the time. We shared a passion for classic literature and housemate and I would always go out to the secondhand bookshops to get all the books we wanted. It's how I figured out that if you are a student of literature, that it's best hitting up the secondhand bookshops. Usually students couldn't bring back what they had to study so they'd bring them to the secondhand shops and get more books.
We would have kept our books separate if we had the space in our rooms, but is often the case in old Victorians, you get huge common areas but small bedrooms with these horrid sloping walls/ceilings. Our bedrooms had enough space for a desk and maybe a small little bookcase for our textbooks and a bed and dresser. So putting our books in a shared space was the best option for us.
This is an apartment in Emmie's case, so having her books on full display in the living room is the next best option. Hopefully, her roommate loves to read, too. That would be the best roommate, in my opinion. It's so rare to find one with shared interests!
True but also I would be elated if my roommate had a library that I could admire and borrow from and I didn't have to pay for any of it??? That's like the absolute dream.
I feel that my inability to unhaul books is solved by living vicariously through watching unhaul vids…
Same 😂😂😂
‘I call this my painting shirt but in reality I don’t... paint.’ Fav line of the day
Is it just me, but I have a hard time letting go of my books even though I already read them and didn't like the story. I still kept them on my shelves! I'm so sentimental 😂 anw, we can't wait for you to settle down to your new condo/apartment. Looking forward to watch the bookshelves tour soon 📚
Me too, but i try to tell myself, think of the enjoyment someone else will get from this book. It sometimes works 😁
Wow, it’s amazing how much brighter the new place is! So refreshing, your vids are going to be spectacular now 💕💜
When I moved from the house I was living in before this one I had to get rid of 24 boxes of books, because I didn't have the space for them. A second-hand bookshop came and collected them all. But it was a painful experience.
I could never
@@melanieventer3511 Alas, I had to. I was moving from a house to one room. This room is, basically, a library as it is. Painful though.
That is what I should have done, instead of being surrounded by bookcases and piles of books constantly worrying the floor will give way and I end up in the flat downstairs.
@@ba-gg6jo I am on the ground floor thankfully.
@@Lokster71 Well thankfully it is an old couple beneath me so you are safe.
Many many congratulations
The new place looks gorgeous
And I’m super excited for all the new videos
Hope you are doing well
You deserve all the happiness and love
Moving is so stressful, I moved several times in my childhood though not for several years, and watching you go through the process of packing all your books and say goodbye to a place brought back all the memories. It is also so stressful so take care of yourself!
It honestly just melts my heart seeing you this happy 🥺🥺
You deserve everything good that comes into your life! Don't think for a second you don't
You ended up keeping Ninth House... dang lol. I also detested that book. The new space looks so amazing! Much bigger and more open, I think that will be great for you! Also, awesome that you have such a chill roommate who will let you put your huge bookshelves right there 😂 Looks amazing though!
haha for now, figured I might need it for a video still although I completely agree, and thank you!
May I ask why you hated it ?😅 I personally really liked it even if I struggled a bit with the writing style at the beginning
I teared up a bit when you left the old place, because it feels like that is where I met a friend. Of course I’ll miss that balcony view too, but I’m beyond thrilled that you are in a place where you can thrive and be safe. Can’t wait to see you make the place your own!
I’m so happy to see you excited and inspired in your new abode. Can’t wait to see you continue to grow and discover all things beautiful. You are a delight and I’m so glad I found your channel xx
I hope the move went smoothly, I am so happy for your new beginnings!! I will have an amazing time watching the moving vlogs(was waiting for it lol) and I hope you have a great day ahead!
Yay so happy for you!!! I hope everything goes well in your new place❤️
I love the new place, sooo much light! Can’t wait for the new book corner videos 🌻
Every time you talk about your old apartment, I think of the Barenaked Ladies song. The new apartment looks awesome and it the kind of apartment that I have always dreamed of having.
Thanks for taking us along on your journey, Emma. The new place looks great. You will be happy there. And thank you for playing my favorite melody of all time, Satie's Gymnopedie No. 1.
Your new apartment looks amazing Emma, so much natural light😍 I wish you all the best for this new chapter!
Hope everything’s well now, Emma!!! Take care!!! Thanks for another lovely video 🌼
So happy for you! The new place looks amazing 😍 the bookshelves look amazing there 💛✨
wey amo su estilo, su vibe, sus outfits wtf
So good to see you happy!! You definitely deserve it ❤️ can't wait for more great content about the move and organization
Your new living room looks so cosy and comfortable 🥰
Loving the new place!! The idea of a magical swamp is so amazing
Enjoy this new chapter of your life! Your apartment looks amazing and it sounds like it has turned out to be a good move for you! I love your art work. I especially like the mushrooms! Wishing you happiness and health and....more books!!!!
Congrats on your big move Emma! So proud and happy for you. You deserve it!
Congratulations for moving!!! The new apartment looks really good!!
This is really fun to watch. I love moving but it’s also exhausting. Love the new place. Congratulations!
I'm going through the same struggles right now. Moved to a new place, just starting up uni again, just built myself a big desk too lol. Also struggling with health, and anxiety. It is so exhausting and tiring. Take care of yourself and enjoy the new place! Take time for yourself :) Thank you for your videos. They make me feel like I'm not overreacting about my struggles and that other people are doing it and feeling the same way❤️❤️❤️
I am so happy for you Emmie! Your dream came true! It looks amazing!
Thank you so much!! I'm loving it here
This new place is so nice. I'm glad you like it too. It's cool to see you explore the new nature areas by you. The area you live in in general is so cool. Your home is in a populated, city area, but you are also a walking distance for the immersion of nature. You have the best of both environments!
Oh, I’m so happy for you! Your new apartment looks so so good 😍
I’m currently in the process of unhauling books as well and it has been…interesting. I didn’t know I could get attached to something I didn’t particularly enjoy and have no intention to reread! Ah!
loved your new place! hope you settle well, sending you good vibes and a lots of love
It’s so lovely to see you in your beautiful new place! Those floors! That kitchen! Those windows! You will infuse it with art and plants and little Emma trinkets.
so excited to see you move!! looking forward to all the new vids which will be filmed in your pretty new place :)
Your videos are very calming I really enjoy your posts. The appt looks great too! Wishing you the best in the new place!
I love how you mix uni, books and moving, literally all I think about all day
ahhh can't wait for the decoration video! the new apartment looks so cozy!
I love how there is so many huge windows so that all the lights can come in!
videos like this drive home the point that i have so little stuff. i recently moved and it took me half a day to pack. moving and packing is so stressful, especially when you have a lot of stuff and you have to pick which to leave behind. i hope this was at least cathartic for you and congrats on moving into a new home!
Congratulations on the move it looks amazing and so magical on the walk
13:04 I wasn't expecting that Emma hahaha! Anyhow, you take care and good luck to everything!
I love your new place! I'm so happy for you :)
you definitely deserve to have such a beautiful place
Omg 😲 well just to tell you that everyting is OK ,and I am happy for you the new place look really calm and perfect to new adventures of books ☺☺
So happy for you moving into this new, cool place!! I like apartment with lots of large windows too, really enjoy company of sunshine :)
The new apartment looks beautiful. I wish you all the best and I hope you get to live so many great memories in it. To new beginnings! ☺
Thank you beautiful!
Im reorganizing my room so this is so the vibe i needed
Sending lots of good energy your way to initiate an untroubled stay in your new home 💛🪐✨🐈
Remember about what you said in your Bloopers video? A moving vlog! Your dream comes true 😂
:')
"maybe 3 books i can take out easily" while you are standing in front of a damn library lmao
You deserve to be there. You have a wonderful future ahead so buckle up.
your new place seems so lovely i can’t wait for more vlogs!
Yay! Congrats on the move! It is emotional whenever you move. I always want to burn all of my possessions after realizing how many boxes I have to move. LOL
It seems so paradoxical how, upon the beginning of something new, we can find ourselves attached to bad memories and places. I know I did, but what counts is to move on. Hope your new home will be less troublesome and attached to all sorts of happy memories!
Thank you for sharing these moments with us. Looks like your new place has some stellar windows and views? And that secret passage!
Yes!! Haha I might make it a little book emergency crawl space
your new place looks amazing! 😍
Moving, while onerous, is pretty great. It's almost like having a clean slate.
Congratulations on the new place! It's very nice! I love it! Great video I hope you are doing well.
Congratulations! I adore your new place. Beautiful!!!
So excited for decorating vlog!
I think we all love this place!!
Emma, you made moving looks easy and funny! Your new place is lovely! Be very happy here, my darling!💖🌼🦋🌈✨🍀
Your new place is so nice! Congrats ☺️
I HAVE BEEN WAITING FFOR THIIIIS
Emma I'm so happy for you !!! The video is great. Love from France
Do you know how old she is? She looks so young but I'm sure she's older than me lol, I'm 18
Your house is coming out beautifully
IM SO HAPPY FOR YOU
Love it! So cozy
Ngl, I may have teared up a little while watching this video. I hope you have a great time in your new apartment!
Hi!! I love your videos so much they make me so happy! I was wondering if you had any advice for getting back into reading after falling out of it for a little while?
your new place looks lovely emma🌺✨
Onwards! To the next adventure!
Love the vlog! I’m also moving soon so this is very comforting 😇
Best of luck on the move!!
Ah!! And i totally understand the feeling of impostor syndrome that "i don't deserve this good place to live". I totally get it!!!! And OF COURSE YOU DESERVE IT!! WE DO!
In Britain you can buy wall hooks by a company called Command. You don't have put holes in the wall and you can move pictures about like the Kelvingrove Art Gallery.
From a swamp to a black and green magical midnight swamp,the ascent from Dante's inferno has begun.Please be safe and well!❤️
Magical midnight swamp.. we love to see it😍😍
My face when she holds up the first book: 😳
I’m literally reading Good Omens right now lol
Congrats! 🎉
Congratulations, Emma. My current place is also the bane of my existence but I'm moving next month so I'm hoping it's as successful as your move. I also intend on giving my place the same farewell greeting as you did!! :)
ah I'm so excited for you! I feel so relieved to be out and yes haha I know exactly how you must feel, so happy for you!! :')
“heat waves” is the song, i loved it too.
gymnopedie no. 1 will forever have my heart🤍
This Grami is so proud for you!I Love your new Apartment ❤ Is your roommate ever in your videos? Possible missed that one. Your walking trail🚶♂️and the grounds are so nice!! Many blessings!!
Soo happy for u sweety 💕
when the going gets tough the tough get going
You should switch the brown black bookcases so that the eye sees a nice flow of consecutive black bookcases, then the brown.
you should be sure to get a art easel for your new room and some canvas/ art supplies to start painting and put those painting shirts to some use lol, congrats on your move !
a huge fun from Japan. I started to read War & Piece yesterday!
"this is my painting shirt, but in reality i don't paint" IM DYING LOLOL
Very important to decorate your living space and be as comfortable as possible :)
Hey emma, you could just adjust your nightgown, just take it to a taylor or seamstress, it's worth it and it is not expensive, more sustainable 2
Just found your channel, i love it! Subscribed and looking forward to watching all your videos while i work
awe hi! So nice to have you here, sending all the love
Congratulations on your new home for you and your housemate. It looks beautiful and modern. I'm sure you will cook up some Vegan storms in the new kitchen......
I have been wanting to motivate myself to pick up a book again and you have just made me do that. Thank you so much! ^-^
I hope you can pick up a book again. I had to learn from experience to not force yourself to do something that your brain's not ready for. It caused me to hate books for awhile even though I loved the sight of them and bought them all the time.
@@TiffWaffles Yeah! I have recently got into reading the song of achilles. And that and the people on BookTube as I like to call it. Have got me into reading again! ^-^
